Designed especially for givers, people-pleasers and those who find themselves over-extending, this class explores how to move and live with greater balance through the yogic principles of Brahmacharya — the wise and sustainable use of life force — and Aparigraha — the practice of non-over-giving and releasing what is not yours to carry.

The physical practice begins with gentle, conscious shoulder mobility to release stored tension and free the flow of energy through the upper body. From there, we build strength and support through the arms and shoulders, paired with heart-opening backbends that encourage openness without collapse — reminding us that we can be open, caring and connected without becoming depleted.

The session opens with a grounding meditation to help you gather scattered energy and call it back home, and closes with a deeply restful integration so you finish feeling centred, supported and replenished.

Return to this practice whenever your shoulders feel heavy, your energy feels stretched thin, or you need a gentle reminder that your life force is sacred — and worth using with care.

As the Full Moon in Taurus settles us back into our bodies, and the Samhain threshold opens (with Solar Samhain arriving Friday 7 November at 14:36 UK time), this class invites you to slow down, ground deeply, and reconnect with the sacred rhythm of enoughness.

This is a time between worlds — between what has ended and what’s beginning to take shape. Taurus energy calls us home to our senses, to the nourishment of Earth, to the quiet joy of being present in our own skin. Samhain reminds us to honour the cycles — to reflect, release, and recommit to what truly brings us joy.

In this grounding lunar flow, you’ll move with intention, guided by the breath and the body’s wisdom. Expect slow, sensual transitions, stillness woven through movement, and invitations to check in with your heart.

This is your reminder to pause, to listen, to feel, and to trust that you are enough.

Listen now to connect with the Full Moon in Taurus energy and cross the Samhain threshold with me — A space to breathe, to rest, to remember your magic.

We soften the body and open the heart to ask: What are you truly devoted to?

Through movement, breath, and stillness, we reconnect with what matters most — practicing surrender, healing the heart, and embodying love as a way of being.

🕊️ Join us for a practice rooted in connection, intention, and the sacred art of showing up — for yourself, and for the world.

✨ Shakti Sādhana — the practice of awakening and honouring the feminine essence within.

This is for the days when you feel tender. When your body whispers, “Go gently.” When your soul is calling for softness, stillness, and truth.

🌀 Gentle lunar-inspired movement 🌀 Breath to awaken Shakti 🌀 Reflection + rest to reconnect with your inner knowing

This is yoga that doesn’t ask you to perform — it invites you to return. To your body. To your breath. To your inner wisdom.

Light a candle. Let yourself be held.

🌙 Let me know how it lands — I always love hearing from you.

This festive season, I’m sharing a special gift to help you find peace amidst the holiday busyness—a 30-minute Yoga Nidra practice. 🌙✨ Perfect for deep rest, stress relief, and reconnecting with yourself.

This practice was recorded during our November SLOW session and is my way of saying thank you for being part of this amazing community. 💛

Take a moment to pause, breathe, and nourish your soul—you deserve it.

But like fire, Manipura must be balanced. When it’s underactive, we might feel stuck, powerless, or unmotivated. When it’s overactive, it can turn into aggression, controlling tendencies, or manipulative behaviors. True power lies in harmony—stoking the flame without letting it rage out of control. 🔥

Join us as we explore the benefits of a balanced Manipura Chakra: ✨ Increased confidence and self-esteem ✨ A stronger sense of purpose and direction ✨ Enhanced discipline and motivation ✨ The courage to embrace transformation

Learn how to nurture this vital energy center without burning out. Tune in to discover tools and practices to harness your power with grace, discipline, and joy. 🌞

In this practice, we’ll:

✨ Explore warming breathwork to direct Prana to the centre, gently building internal warmth. ✨ Focus on the Lung Meridian in the Yin portion of class, allowing the breath to flow and balance Vata energy, which lives in the large intestine & lungs.

Perfect for grounding and warming as we navigate the cool, airy essence of Vata season here in the Nothern Hemisphere.

This latest podcast episode is the perfect way to explore the 5 Kleshas—the mental barriers that create stress, attachment, and fear.

In this 80-minute yoga class, you’ll get a mini exploration of each Klesha:

🧘‍♀️ Avidya (Ignorance): Break free from autopilot and cultivate awareness. 🧘‍♂️ Asmita (Egoism): Let go of comparison and connect with your true self. 🧘‍♀️ Raga (Attachment): Find balance by releasing the craving for more. 🧘‍♂️ Dvesha (Aversion): Embrace discomfort to unlock growth and empowerment. 🧘‍♀️ Abhinivesha (Fear of Change): Step into courage and let go of fear.

This podcast is your taster class—a chance to visit each Klesha, reflect, and begin the journey of self-discovery.

Did you know that our feet have 26 bones, 3 arches and 4 corners?

The number 4 symbolises stability and resonates with the 4 petals of the root chakra. Our feet also contain several grounding marma points too.

We start slow with somatic floor based movement, and then progress to a standing flow with no weight bearing on the hands/shoulders....Yes, you got it, not a downdog in sight!!!

Recorded early Dec'18 on the run up towards the Christmas holidays in this yin yang practice we learn to take up residence in all parts of ourself and simply breathe into the experience. We learn to let go of expectation, trying to create a particular result or suppress a specific emotion, instead we acknowledge it all - the steadiness and the restlessness, the discontentment and the joy. For it is from this place we can rest into Grace, even if it is a little uncomfortable or chaotic around us!

Perfect practice for the Holiday season!

Here is my midsummer offering for you to help you take a scared pause and reflect on this cycle of light as we tip across the threshold in to the yin phase of the year - here in the northern hemisphere, at least.

Enjoy!

This practice will help slow you right down so that you can listen inwards and recieve the wisdom of your heart.
